Full Description
Two rectangular enclosures superimposed: larger one has 2 rectangular structures inside its west boundary, both with a pit or hearth at one end. (1)
Also visible on the 2001 Google Earth image. This seems to suggest a series of overlapping field systems, probably three phases, at least one phase of which consists of small rectilinear enclosures. There is possibly a square enclosure with an internal feature at the centre of the cropmarks. However this is on the same alignement as the plough marks so its form might be misleading.
